  • Some famous faces on there. I think it was around that time we sang The Song of the Hebrew Slaves. It is a beautiful song, but it felt wonderful to sing it. Written by Giuseppe Verdi, though as your dad said it maybe wouldn't have seemed quite so good if it had been written by Joe Green.

  • Where did you find that, none of us look old enough to shave. I loved serving on that Bishopric with your dad and Andy.

So sorry I missed the funeral on zoom. Technical issues ( I'm hopeless with computers), aligned with it being at 4:45 a.m. So sad to hear of John's passing, I travelled all over England playing football with him. A true friend and as others have mentioned supremely talented. Sincere condolences to Val, Judith, Rachel and Alison, and the rest of his family.
